I've just bought a small, and I'm about 5'8 or 177cm.
The small's ETT is given as 535 which is more or less the same as my road bike (537), so I'm gonna start with the same length stem (80mm) and see what it's like. I've heard that it doesn't hurt to have cross bikes a little smaller?? Don't quote me on that though, it's likely bullshit.
There'll be a lot of seatpost, though the steerer is about a mile long so you can space till you're comfortable?
